you should NOT be allowed to play your idol before the votes are cast, that is such bs. probst is a great host, but he favors quick entertainment over the integrity of the game which i don't like. still a good season, but way too many idols.

i'm in the opposite boat...i think this cast is top-notch but the gameplay/overreliance on idols for strategy is really weighing them down
